He wants to help Britain win the war by giving his play anch box, the rubber tires from his toy cars, his tooth powder can and an adhesive tape r011. Barrie Lghman, Todmorden.” After our air raids which incon- veniences hundreds of people, a mo- bile laundry arrived in Weston, an_d also a mobile baths van. These they set up in the streets and people who were “b1itzed” could go and have a hot bath in a steel cubicle free, and also take their laundry and all the sheets and linen in their houses which got all messed up and have it all washed free. This latter ar- rangement is still in Weston, has been hcre over a month now. Both these services were Jippy’s idea. He planned them both and sends his own staff out with them. It really is a brain wave and a comfort to har- rassed housewives. You have no idea what a state your house is in after a “blitz”. The ceilings come down, soot falls down the chimneys and smothers everything in all your rooms. Everything has to be turned out and cleaned and washed. This happens to ALL the houses near where a bomb falls. Tiles clatter down off the roofs and windows all smash and your china falls off the shelves. Oh, it is a pickle I can tell you.” When sorting over the salvage col- lected by the boy scouts organization in-Aurora a small lunch box was found. On opening it this note was enclosed:â€" We have practically recovered from our raids and the town has been nicely tidied up and shops have found other premises, so except for the ruins which have to remain until afâ€" ter the war, we are Working norm- ally once more. Owing to the reâ€" Stricticn of petrol there are very few cars about the streets, and it is quite a pleasure once more to be able to get around with less noise and rush and smell of exhausts. We are so thankful that the much talked of and dreaded invasion has not come off and no one seems to think it will now. So once more England will be spared the awful devastation of war, except from air bombing. The following are extracts from an interesting letter received by Mr. R. 8. ‘Cooper of Richmond Hill from a relative overseas. It tells an in- teresting story of conditions “over there" and reflects the fine spirit of the English people who take in- convenience and rationing in the day’s stride without any complaints: The letter says: “I am glad things are not too bad out there. They really are not too had here. The rationing scheme is working out marvellously. At least we do all get a share of what there is to be had and it is quite suffi- cient if not luxurious. The ‘coupon system for clothes too is quite a good idea, it prevents extravagance on the part of the moneyed people, especially the munition workers, who find the money easy come and easy go. a ,A_‘J ‘ Thirty Years Experience Formerly with Heintzman Company Leave OTdEFS at Amtin'sfiDrug Store From the Toronto Conservatory of Slua‘c. will accept a number of pupils n Piano.

ONTARIO LETTERS FROM OVERSEAS Dr. M. J. Quigley George W. Cross Piano Tuner Adelmo M elecci Dr. W. J. Mason MUSICAL DENTAL Rinhruond VI?" RICHMOND HILL, ONTARIO THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 5th, 1942. A lovely lunch was served of sand- wiches, cake, cookies and candies, and the remainder of the afternoon was spent in playing games. The boys excelled in bobbing for apples. There were 29 boys and 36 girls. All agreed that they had a wonder- ful time. The next meeting will be November 14th at 2.30 p.m. Mr. A. R. Haskett of the Better Business Bureau in Toronto gave a very informative address on “Before you get generous, get curious”. at the G. R. Goulding Home and School Association meeting last Wednesday evening. Mrs. M. Booth the presi- dent was in the chair and on behalf of the Home and School Association presented a Union Jack flag to the principal, Mr. T. Rowson. The dedi- cation ceremcnv was conducted by Rev. A. H. Halbert after which a school chorus sang a patriotic num- ber. Mrs. W. Rodick of Milliken, who was a former princinal of the school and was verv highly respect- ed. nresented the Roll of Honour with the names of the ex-pupils who are now serving in the King’s Forces numbering about fifty. Most of these young men attended school when she was the principal. Piano solos were given by Misses Jean and Sylvia Taylor and Bnhhy Connor sang two natriotic numbers in his usual pleasâ€" ine‘ way. Mrs. W. Rodick and Mrs. Mrs. Talmadge Adair and family spent last week-end at her parents’ home in New Lowell. Hallowe’en passed off very quiet-4 1y here. No doubt the wet weather prevented a number from celebrat- mg. fie. Harold Duggan of Petawawa Military Camp spent last; week-end at his home. The local clergy are teaching Reâ€" ligious Education in the public schools of this area with weekly classes. Rev. A. H. Halbert and Rev. M. C. Tait made a friendly exchange of pulpits last Sunday evening. Notwithstanding the heavy down- pour of rain the real Hallowe’en spirit prevailed at the Mission Band party last Saturday afternoon in the United Church Sunday School room. A Ghost Reception Committee wel- comed the guests which numbered sixty-five. The room was attract- ively decorated for the occasion with lighted pumpkins, yellow candles, Chinese lanterns, witches, cats, owls, etc. The parade was of special in- terest to all and prizes were given to the following for the most at- tractive costumes: 6 years and un- der, Doreen Taylor, dressed as a Red Cross nurse; 9 years and under, Joan Bilton. as an Indian Maiden with a feather headdress; 12 years and under, Betty Moore as Bo-Peep. The regular meeting followed with Jean Lippett the president, in the chair. The meeting opened with quiet music, a call to worship, the Members’ Purpose, a hymn and prayer. Georgina Plain read the minutes of the previous meeting. Jimmy Campbell took up the offer- ing and the president gave the off- ertory prayer. Mrs. Halbert led in the devotional service. Prayer was offered by Margaret McMillan and the usual Bible story was told. Also another interesting story on the “Origin of Hallowe’en”. Nancy Cole and Betty Moore contributed piano solos. Billy Skelly operated the lan- tern for the singing of the hymns. On Thursday evening, November 12th at 8 o‘clock the Women’s Asso- ciation will hold a Hardâ€"time Party in the SS. Hall to which all are cordially invited. There will be crok- inole and other games. Come and enjoy a happy evening. We are pleased Frank N. Bowes slowly improving illness. A number from here attended the Geer-Bollon wedding in Willowdale Baptist Church last Friday. A. H. Halbert were called to the platform and presented with a lovely bouquet of mums by Mrs. Booth and Mrs. E. Riddell on behalf of the Home and School Association. Re- freshments were served and a happy social hour enjoyed by all. IEIBERAL ADS GET RESULTS If you have something to sell, tel] 6000 readers about i't through a. classified “ad” in The Liberal.

At the North York Plowing Match held on the farm of David Graham, R’ing'wood, last week there were 41 entries. Melvin Sedore, Keswick, seven years old. won the prize for the youngest plowman. ’ u. Seven weeks from tomorrow in Christmas. ' ; _:.1-M Teacher (pointing to deer a’t ihe zoo): “Johnny, what is that?" Johnny: “I don’t know." Teacher: “What does your mother call your father?" Johnny: “Don’t tell me that's a Robert Murray, Uxbridge farmer. lost his barn, 90 hogs, 1‘0 calves and a bull, and over 4,000 bushels of grain when he forgot to shut off the chopping machine in the barn, and with his family went to Lindsay on a business trip. The machine, it is believed ran so long it was out of oil and overheated, with disastrous results. Something new in the way of an account says the Barrie Examiner, was paid by Flos Council at its Oc- tober meeting, the item being: $31.50 to pay for nine turkeys killed by dogs. At the same time, the Coun- cil paid $196 for sheep killed by dogs. Bills of the latter kind are all too Owner of 1939 Ford would like to correspond with Widow who owns two tires. Object matrimony.

B.‘ “I don’t mind washing dishes for you,” wailed the henpecked husband. “And I will even sweep the floors, but I ain’t gonna run no ribbons through my nightshirt just to fool the baby.” A 79-pound wolf, which measured almost six feet from tip of nose to end of tail, was shot by John Wat- son, of Stayner, in Flos Township last month. When shot by Watson the animal was in close pursuit of a doe. Game Warden Buie thinks this animal was probably the “killâ€" er” of a pack which had been play- ing havoc with sheep in the south section of Flos for some time. common in rural municipalities, but claims for fowl done to death by canines are only considered since the Act was amended to provide for this. louse Speaking of treason, we can re- member when dipping a wet spoon in a sugar bowl was only a social error. Many towns and villages are adopting new schedules of business hours to meet the request for conâ€" servation of power, and give the storekeepers a break they have long waited for. It’s a wonderful chance for business men who have been working too long hours to make a correction in existing conditions. The old idea that the public must be coddled with service is out for the duration. The public now is in the mood to accept a little inconvenience with a smile. That was more than a wisecrack John Edgar ’Hoover handed Ameri- can police chiefs when he pointed out that if an Austrian paperhanger named Hitler had not been paroled nearly 20 years ago, millions of lives would have been saved. What followed is the painful making Hitler, then a relatively obscure agitator, was convicted of “violent and treasonable demonstrations a- gainst his government,” and imprisâ€" oned Zn Munich. Against the advice of the Bavarian police director, he was paroled. ’ '1’ Mm, GENERAL NEWS AND VIEWS is history, still in A poung matron reports that one morning recently she hastened downâ€" town to attend what was advertised as a sale of “all-wool” snow suits, her small daughter having out- grown such parts of her last win- ter‘s garment as she had not out- worn. The suits on sale were fair value at the price, but to the mother‘s ex- perienced eye were obviously not all-wool. When she protested to the sales girl about the inaccurate ad- vertising she received the reply: “Well, that’s all the wool they put in them these days.” Buy Victory Bonds Victory Loan Phone 87 PHONE 10, THE ELEVATOR Dominion of Canada Subscriptions to this loan will be ac- cepted'on and after MONDAY, OC- TOBER 19th next. 3% bonds dated Novémber 1st at par, payable No- vember lst, 1956 @101.
